Clinical practice guidelines: management of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH). Manual. Health Technology Assessment Unit, Putrajaya, Malaysia. (2011)



Abstract

Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is defined as a group of diseases characterized by a progressive increase of pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) leading to right ventricular failure and premature death. Untreated, it is a potentially devastating disease. However, the past decade has seen remarkable improvements in our understanding of the pathology associated with the condition and the development of PAH-specific therapies with the ability to alter the natural history of the disease.
